This is a Paper autograph sticker for player max, issued for the IEM Rio 2022 set and released inside the Rio 2022 Challengers Autograph Capsule. It carries the team attribution for 9z Team and is a collector autograph rather than a team or community-only design.
Paper is the baseline film for this set, sitting below the premium films in the finish ladder. Within the Rio 2022 run, Paper delivers the same artwork and signature as the higher films but without the visual enhancements that place Holo, Foil, Glitter, and Gold above it.
This sticker is positioned in the budget bracket, so expect it to be an accessible autograph option for collectors building a Rio 2022 autograph lineup. As a budget-tier Paper, it functions as an easy entry point into owning a signed max sticker without stepping up to premium finishes.
The sticker is tied to IEM Rio 2022 and was distributed through the Rio 2022 Challengers Autograph Capsule. Event provenance matters because this is a capsule-issued autograph linked directly to that tournament set rather than a generic release.
Because it comes from the Rio 2022 Challengers Autograph Capsule, supply is fixed at release and will not increase from new drops. Over time clean stock naturally thins as applied copies circulate, so the supply characteristic is permanent rather than market-driven.
An applied copy means the sticker has been placed on a weapon; a clean, unapplied sticker remains on its backing and preserves original condition. Condition and unapplied status are meaningful to collectors because an unapplied Paper autograph preserves centering, edges, and signature clarity in ways an applied example cannot.
Collectors pick this up for straightforward provenance and autograph access to max without the premium cost of higher films. For a long-term hold it pairs the full capsule provenance with a low entry finish, which is a sensible building block for anyone assembling Rio 2022 autograph sets.
Paper autographs sit well on darker weapon skins where the signature reads cleanly without glare, and many builders prefer Paper for large-area crafts where the signature is the focus rather than flashy effects. Demand for applied examples on popular skins feeds back into desirability, especially when a clean autograph supply thins.
When buying, prioritize an unapplied, clean example and confirm the finish is Paper so you get the exact autograph film you expect. The live market price is shown in the price block on this page, which reflects current supply, finish, and provenance factors.
